gbA Architecture & Planning has been working with Kingdom East School District to complete a two-phase Facilities Report: Part 1 is an analysis of the existing conditions for the seven KESD schools which includes an Existing Building Analysis and an Educational & Programming Analysis. Part 2 consists of Conceptual Design for a number of different approaches for the District's facilities. The KESD schools include: Burke Town School, Concord School, Lunenburg School, Lyndon Town School, Miller's Run School, Newark Street School, and Sutton School. The Existing Building and Educational & Programming Analysis included here, makes up Part 1 of the Facilities Report. The purpose of this undertaking is to ascertain the condition of the existing facilities for maintenance purposes and to determine how successfully the facilities provide a supportive learning environment for students and staff. This was considered for both current and future educational programming. This report completes Part 1. Part 2 of the Facilities Report will include Conceptual Design, which will begin following the approval and acceptance of Part 1. Conceptual Design will build upon the Existing Facilities Conditions Assessment and Educational & Programming Analysis and provide multiple planning solutions that create appropriate and inspiring facilities and campuses to benefit the experience of students, staff, and the community at large.
Kingdom East School District’s board and administration, along with Diantha Korzun
and Steve Kredell of gbArchitecture, would like to share Concept Designs for Burke Town School that address needs identified in Part I of KESD’s Facilities Analysis process.
For Part II, multiple planning solutions create appropriate and inspiring facilities and campuses to support and benefit the experience of students, staff, and the community at large.
During this community meeting, you will have the opportunity to review and provide input about the designs, as well as participate in discussions about the associated costs and opportunities.
We want to hear your thoughts. Everyone is welcome!

The campus needs to be updated for 20th century learning to build upon the ideals of the school.
This building previously served as a temporary classroom space for Miller’s Run. Prior to its relocation to Burke, it had already exceeded its expected usefulness. For health and safety reasons, this building should be demolished. Of
concern is the air quality, mold, deterioration and rot. Temperature in the space is difficult to regulate. The facilities team continues to monitor and maintain the building until it can be replaced.
A new dedicated Multipurpose space is necessary. The existing “gym” is inadequate and is not designed for this purpose. Thus, it does not work well as a gym nor as a performance space. The space is too small for many activities, and is not acoustically separated from the cafeteria below and causes many distractions.
There is only one staff bathroom for the entire school and it is not ADA compliant.
The nurse’s room needs a shower to properly function for sick students.
There is no conference room or place for teachers and staff to meet.
There is no staff room and no designated collaboration space for teachers.
Second grade shares a restroom with Pre-K. Each younger class should have their own restroom.
The main entry is not directly visible from the main office except through the use of cameras.
Finishes in the building need to be updated. Acoustics should be considered.
A designated Makerspace area would be great for STEM opportunities. There is a lot of interest in a Bakerspace, but they have no room for this now.
A classroom for Life Skills would be beneficial.
The Art room is small because shelving occupies much of the space. Dedicated storage may alleviate this issue.
An outdoor, covered classroom space would be a wonderful addition to the school.
Access to potable water is a concern in several of the buildings.
